I heard this line in a play in 1953 but do not know the name of the play. Any ideas?
According to TVtropes.org this comes from a 1933 film of the H.G. Wells book "The Island of Doctor Moreau." It implies that the indigenous population is about to rise up and attack the people who don't belong there. Harkens back to racism, Imperialism and Anglo-Saxons going into the lands of others and trying to exploit/oppress the native people.

It is indeed from "The Island of Lost Souls (1933)," uttered in several forms by Charles Laughton as Dr. Moreau. However, as the 'natives' in question are not natives at all but the human/animal hybrid results of Moreau's experiments. As such, the above claims of racism, imperalism and exploitation are erroneous.
The phrase "the natives are getting restless" likely originates from colonial times when indigenous peoples were seen as rebellious or troublesome. It is now used figuratively to suggest growing impatience or dissatisfaction within a group.
"Anais" is a French name of Persian origin meaning "grace" or "gracious." It is often used as a feminine given name.
The name Shadia is of Arabic origin and means "singer" or "singing voice." It is a popular name for girls in Arabic-speaking countries.
The name Doris is of Greek origin and means "gift" or "sea." It is also associated with Greek mythology, where Doris is a sea nymph.
The last name Soria is of Spanish origin and is derived from the place name Soria, a province in Spain. The name is likely to have an ancient origin that predates written records, making its exact meaning uncertain.
Soumia is a name of Arabic origin that means "elevated" or "high." It is a feminine name that conveys a sense of dignity and honor.
The origin of the expression "the natives are restless" goes back to the 1933 film Island of Lost Souls. The saying is offered by Dr. Moreau when his human and beast creatures become agitated.
